We Know It Was You, Russia

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Former British spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia continue to recover following a nerve agent attack in Salisbury a little over two weeks ago. They are both in critical condition as is a police officer who helped them and, after a preliminary investigation, they are considered victims of a Russian-made nerve agent called Novichok. British Prime Minister Theresa May has laid blame for the attack firmly at the feet of the Russian state, and is backed in that determination by the U.S., Germany and France.

Russia has denied involvement and feigned outrage at the insult of being fingered in the attack, calling the allegation an “unforgivable breach of diplomatic etiquette”. The Russian state even went so far to deny that they had ever had a program to create the deadly nerve agent.

Now, however, as Russia continues to deny they had anything to do with the Skripals current condition, a Soviet-era scientist has admitted that not only did Russia make Novichok, he was involved in its creation.

[Professor Leonid] Rink said he worked under the Soviet Union at a chemical weapons facility where the Novichok military-grade nerve agent was developed. Asked if he was one of Novichok’s creators, he told RIA: “Yes. It was the basis for my doctoral dissertation.”

Rink confessed to having secretly supplied a military-grade poison for cash that was used to murder a Russian banking magnate and his secretary in 1995. In a statement to investigators after his arrest, viewed by Reuters, Rink said he was in possession of poisons created as part of the chemical weapons program which he stored in his garage.

The catch is that while Rink acknowledges the official state line disavowing a Russian program to make the nerve agent is a lie, he also uses the same expertise to claim Russia was unlikely to have perpetrated the poisoning of the Skirpals because they survived the attack.

“It’s hard to believe that the Russians were involved, given that all of those caught up in the incident are still alive,” he said. “Such outrageous incompetence by the alleged (Russian) spies would have simply been laughable and unacceptable.”

Rink noted that the chemical content of Novichok is likely known to other countries and that some scientists who worked on the development of the poison have left Russia and taken the knowledge with them.

      The Unraveling False Flag Skripal Incident

      Skripal’s Poisoning is Theresa May’s Chance to Make Her Government Great Again

      A mere two weeks ago, British Prime Minister Theresa May was a very unpopular politician hated by everyone and their dog because of her DISASTROUS BREXIT NEGOTIATIONS. Now, she’s the leader of a “nation under attack” and all her sins are forgotten.

      Is it a coincidence that the Sergei Skripal poisoning scandal happened at just at the right time to save the Tory government and its leader from the popular IRE SPARKED BY THEIR HANDLING of the BREXIT NEGOTIATION$ :?:

      Maybe it is a coincidence, but May’s rushed, jingoistic, vicious and aggressive reaction was certainly a calculated move, most likely designed to make the British public and the British press forget about Brexit and the :idea: TELFORD PAEDOPHILE SCANDAL.

      The SERGEI SKRIPAL Poisoning Opens Up a MASSIVE RABBIT HOLE….

      However, the problem with this current incident is that it occurs just days after the UK Defense Minister announced that Britain’s security establishment was shifting its attention away from terrorism and onto Russia as the major threat to the UK. I in fact wrote about that here on Saturday, and about reported anxieties in Russia that some kind of false-flag was being prepped to blame on Russia.

      And then, a few days later, this poisoning incident occurs – and immediately, government officials and news media run with an official narrative pinning the incident directly on Putin.

      There are also a couple of other, darker reasons to not necessarily trust the official narrative – which you’ll see shortly.

      In this specific, current instance, however, it is just too coincidental that the British Defense Minister was saying just days ago that Russia (and not extremist terrorists) is now the major threat to the UK: and that he had specifically said that resources were now being pulled away from counter-terrorism operations and onto the Russian threat instead.

      And then, a few days later, another Russian enemy of Putin’s just happens to be targeted for poisoning in Salisbury.

      The newspapers have said today that the ‘Counter Terrorism Policing’ network is handling the investigation – which precisely matches what the Defense Minister was saying a week or so ago about pulling focus and resources away from the terrorism threat and onto the Russian threat.

      This Skripal poisoning is just too conveniently fitting into the pre-scripted narrative.

      There is something else worthy of noting here too: and this is where we go down a very curious rabbit-hole.

      The Independent’s coverage stated that, despite there being no official word about toxicology reports, ‘experts’ had suggested the use of ‘nerve agents’.

      But it’s this next bit that’s important to note. Because THE ARTICLE NOTES THAT ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL NERVE AGENTS (‘VX’) IS DEVELOPED at the BRITISH MINISTRY of DEFENSE PORTON DOWN FACILITY.
      THE SAME ARTICLE ALSO NOTES THAT THIS ‘VX’ IS THE SAME AGENT THAT WAS USED TO ASSASSINATE KIN JONG-NAM at the KUALA LUMPUR INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT IN FEBRUARY LAST YEAR.

      This is a CURIOUS thing to mention, BECAUSE THERE’S BEEN NO TOXICOLOGY REPORT YET OR OFFICIAL STATEMENT ABOUT WHICH SUBSTANCE WAS INVOLVED – so why have some news sources bothered talking about a specific nerve agent or the fact that said substance is manufactured at the MoD’s Porton Down facility? And WHY also MENTION THE ASSASSINATION of KIM JONG-NAM IN A NEWS STORY REACTING TO the UNRELATED ALLEGED POISONING of a FORMER RUSSIAN AGENT in SALISBURY :?:

      Stranger still, the PORTON DOWN FACILITY IS JUST DOWN THE ROAD FROM SALISBURY (about 5 miles), WHERE SKRIPAL and his DAUGHTER WERE ALLEGEDLY DISCOVERED .

      In fact, the MP for Salisbury, John Glenn, referenced this himself when talking to the BBC about the Skripal incident. He said “Fortunately just down the road in my constituency at Porton Down defence, science and technology labs exist and they will have taken the substance and will be trying to evaluate what they can.”

      Of course, what he’s saying is that the substance will be analysed there – but what he was also reminding us, deliberately or by accident, is that Skripal was found only a short distance from an installation that specialises in producing and experimenting with chemical agents.

      For the record, the implication (from the various texts I’ve read) is that Porton Down’s activities have been so secretive that the vast majority of political officials (and especially Members of Parliament) have absolutely no idea of what has really gone on there.

      PORTON DOWN is an infamous, controversial location, which just happens to be linked to one of the DARKER SIDES of BRITAIN’S military or DEFENSE ESTABLISHMENT.

      Porton Down is regarded, even on Wikipedia, as one of the MOST SECRETIVE LOCATIONS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM. It is by now well known that Porton Down, under the MoD, has been involved in chemical warfare research and human testing, and that up to 20,000 people took part in experiments there between the 1950s and up to 1989.

      This has all been covered over many years in mainstream media once the controversies became too difficult to entirely ignore or cover-up. In the 1950s it was called the Chemical Defence Experimental Establishment.

      A 2015 article in The Independent confirms that thousands of people were subject to chemical and biological warfare trials. By 2006, 500 veterans claimed they had suffered long term ill-health as a result of the experiments, and MoD agreed to pay out some £360 million to many of these people, though continuing to deny liability.

      But, hey, it gets worse.

      Porton Down is also linked to another very high-profile figure linked to intelligence operations and, as it happens, assassination: Dr DAVID KELLY, the ‘WEAPONS EXPERT’ who was FOUND DEAD IN THE LEAD-IN TO THE ILLEGAL INVASION of IRAQ.

      DAVID KELLY WAS THE HEAD of ‘BIOLOGICAL DEFENSE’ RESEARCH at PORTON DOWN.

      A 2008 docu-film, Anthrax War, asserts that the late DAVID KELLY in fact HAD LINKS TO ILLEGAL human EXPERIMENTS on BRITISH SERVICEMEN at PORTON DOWN.

      Bob Coen’s film suggests even that Kelly was one of the key minds behind the West’s germ warfare programmes.

      A Daily Mail article from 2009 relayed that KELLY’S ‘ COMPUTERS LINKED HIM TO BRITAIN’$ INTELLIGENCE SERVICE$ MI5 AND MI6, GCHQ, the Ministry of Defence (MoD), the Foreign Office and foreign spy agencies – including ISRAEL’$ notorious MOSSAD (FOR WHOM HE HAD WORKED SINCE 1995 AS AN ADVISOR WITH the BLE$$ING of WHITEHALL) …’ and references ‘tens of thousands of documents and photographs; some show human victims of anthrax poisoning, as well as animal ‘guinea pigs’ poisoned with anthrax and other germs in labs across the world.’

      Interestingly – and I’m not suggesting this necessarily relates to the Skripal poisoning at all – the same Daily Mail article from 2009 also has another interesting passage, stating that ‘AMAZINGLY, 12 OTHER WELL-KNOWN MICROBIOLOGISTS LINKED WITH GERM WARFARE RESEARCH HAVE DIED IN THE PAST DECADE, FIVE OF THEM RUSSIANS INVESTIGATING CLAIMS THAT THE ISRAELIS WERE WORKING ON VIRUSES TO TARGET ARABS…
      THE RUSSIAN PLANE IN WHICH THEY WERE TRAVELLING FROM TEL AVIV to SIBERIA WAS SHOT DOWN in OCTOBER 2001 OVER THE BLACK SEA BY AN ‘OFF-COURSE’ UKRAINIAN SURFACE-TO-AIR MISSILE…..’

      It adds, ‘Dr KELLY KNEW THE VICTIMS and ASKED MI6 TO FIND OUT MORE DETAILS.
